[The effect of diamond grinding instrument of different grit on dental hard tissue].

Under practice-related conditions 100 human molars and premolars were prepared with diamond grinding instruments of different grit. We obtained the smoothest surfaces by using the extra-fine grit at 250,000 rpm, thus indicating the suitability of these instruments for finishing cavity walls especially at high rotating speeds. Only slight differences were found between medium and coarse grit. The time saved by choosing the super-coarse grit for preparation is largely compensated because finishing of rough cavity walls will take longer. No constant effect of the rotating speeds on the depth of roughness of cavity walls was observed.

[Attempt of a definite statement on dental care for the handicapped].

A survey made in cooperation with various institutions for the handicapped ascertained the dental coverage and care of the handicapped. Participating in the survey were 634 institutions for the handicapped. The study included 98,737 handicapped individuals treated on both an in-patient and an out-patient basis in these institutions. The results of the survey tend to indicate that dental care for the handicapped is in need of improvement.

[The effect of various ultrasonic tooth cleaning devices on dental filling materials].

The influence of various ultrasonic devices for cleaning teeth on the surfaces of different filling materials was studied in 300 extracted teeth. Special attention was directed to the cavity edge and the area immediately surrounding it. Alterations in surface roughness were determined and compared with an electromechanical stylus. The inflicted damage depends much more on the type of filling material than on the device. Distinct quantitative differences due to the devices however were observable.

[Modification of the filling margin by ultrasonics].

On 117 extracted teeth the border closure of polished fillings with various materials was examined after exposure to the action of ultrasound. The estimation of the depth of roughening in the area of the border of the filling was achieved with the help of the Förster profilograph. In addition we present the results obtained by the REM technique. It was shown that the least damage of the border closure was in teeth filled with composites.

Nosologic and genetic considerations in the aglossy-adactyly syndrome.

A case of the aglossy-adactyly syndrome with a variety of associated anomalies and mental retardation suggests that the disorder may be a more complex dysmorphogenetic syndrome than is currently recognized. It is suggested that at least one and possibly two other conditions presently regarded as nosologically distinct from the aglossy-adactyly syndrome may, in fact, represent the same formal genesis syndrome. Because of the rarity of the condition, the failure to search for minor anomalies in first degree relatives and the lack of careful family histories in most cases, our present understanding of this syndrome is limited although etiologic heterogeneity seems likely.
